Streamlining IT Operations & Enhancing User Experience

Streamlining IT operations requires effective and user-friendly access management solutions. A key player in this landscape is the GateKeeper Enterprise system, an innovative login authentication tool that significantly simplifies administrative tasks and enhances user experience. This article discusses how GateKeeper Enterprise optimizes onboarding and offboarding processes, simplifies password management, and reduces support tickets related to password issues.

1) Efficient Onboarding with GateKeeper Enterprise

Ease and Speed of User Enrollment

The onboarding process is often perceived as a laborious task, given the numerous accounts and credentials each user must handle. With GateKeeper Enterprise, the process becomes a breeze. The system provides a centralized console for IT admins to create user profiles and assign permissions quickly. A research study found that the average time to onboard a user with traditional methods is around 5 hours. GateKeeper Enterprise can trim this time by up to 80%, meaning you could potentially onboard a user in just one hour.

Reliability and Security

The system ensures every user’s credentials are securely stored and transmitted, eliminating the risk of credential theft or misuse during the onboarding process. This reliability is a significant time saver for admins, as they no longer have to worry about managing or correcting such issues.

2) Simplified Password Management

Elimination of Password Fatigue

Password fatigue is a prevalent issue in today’s digital world. The average business user has to manage 191 passwords. GateKeeper Enterprise simplifies this scenario by replacing traditional passwords with secure, token-based authentication. This eliminates the need for users to remember multiple passwords and for admins to manage password databases.

Enhanced Security

As per the 2020 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, over 80% of breaches were due to weak or compromised passwords. The GateKeeper solution’s token-based system significantly minimizes this risk, as tokens are harder to crack than conventional passwords.

3) Reduction in Support Tickets Related to Password Problems

Lesser Password-related Issues

The use of GateKeeper Enterprise dramatically reduces the volume of support tickets related to password problems. A Forrester report found that password resets account for about 20-50% of all IT help desk calls. By eliminating the need for passwords, GateKeeper brings down these figures, freeing up the IT team’s bandwidth for more critical issues.

Automated Unlocking

Furthermore, the automated unlocking feature of GateKeeper saves time for both the user and the admin by providing seamless access without compromising on security.

4) Streamlining IT Operations by Offboarding Users Efficiently

Quick Access Revocation

When an employee leaves the company, GateKeeper Enterprise allows administrators to revoke access permissions quickly and securely. Traditional offboarding can take several hours per user, but GateKeeper Enterprise reduces this time by 70%, ensuring a smooth and efficient transition.

Security Assurance

With GateKeeper Enterprise, admins can be assured that former employees can no longer access company resources once their access has been revoked. This peace of mind saves admins the time and stress of double-checking or dealing with potential security breaches.

GateKeeper Enterprise represents the future of secure and efficient login authentication, combining security, convenience, and time savings for both IT admins and users. By streamlining the onboarding and offboarding processes, simplifying password management, and reducing the volume of password-related support tickets, it proves to be an indispensable tool for any modern IT admin.
